Let me know what you think of the new cards and meta! I also want to thank firestone again for supporting my content for so long, if you want to help out the channel and use the same tracker as me (completely free BTW) make sure to use my code here: www.influencerlink.org/SHFO5

Fun interaction for Patient Scout: if you have a Patient Scout pair, and sell one of the scouts to discover a two drop, picking a Patient Scout as your discover will TRIPLE the Patient Scout instead of replacing the one you just sold. Not sure if intended, took me by surprise when it happened.
Whitemane has a nice interaction, if you are playing with one minion down, two of your opponents cards are technically in front of her and they will both be taunted etc. EDIT: "Comps like evil twin and Ozumat work well for instance." This does not work unfortunately, Whitemane activates last. But if you play a minion down you will taunt two opponent cards.
@@alexman159 Really? I swear i have had this happen to me? Maybe I was just up against a player with one card down? I'll have to test it again if I get the chance. Thanks!
Hi Ben! Been silently watching your videos for a while now. I find your accent relaxing so I watch them in the morning while I’m getting ready for my day. Thanks for all the great content!
Triple Ball basically won me a game yesterday. The other player was scaling big demons and was just out of my reach in stats. I had some menagerie/blood gem scaling. Last round I tripled a huge Ball and sold it for the stats to 2 minions which gave me the edge.
patient scout is such a huge buff for tea guy, tipper is always a posibility and if demons are in you can also find wrathweaver. im a total tea addict now, and i blame that damn scout KEKW
I think the reason for adding a new dragon on 1 and a new pirate on 5 is to make the other 1-dragons and 5-pirates harder to get without removing them. Making a little less likely people go for those specific comps and thereby diversifying the meta.
Dude, please make more coaching content on the matter of battlegrounds! Tips, secrets, strategies, analyses - whatever, you do it so fine and we need that Glad i subbed, and I wish you good luck
I know this is the wrong video to comment on but I wanted to say thank you. After stumbling and finding this channel and watching a few of your guide vids, i Already have started winning more.
I might go live on twitch tomorrow, but not with Hearthstone, a different very exciting challenge! I do plan on doing another youtube battlegrounds stream sometime this week
the new pirate is great. him with two bettys and the balls on board will buff your board fast. it is basically a early admiral, but stats are permanent. him with admiral is nuts.
@@AndiParkour yeah. That reminds me of when I had exactly 3 gold left and I needed 6 for mccaw and rebirth and there was also a gambler on the shop. Bought that one first, then the other 2, Baron wasn't golden that turn and I lost health to a lucky ghost but it was the right play.
@@RobMedellin The flexibility of that quest is kinda insane. When you get a 5 drop early its soo good to just make it golden and enable comps. Plus you still keep the flexibility to use it on someting else one turn. Baron for exodia comps or leapers, hogger for apm, mama bear for tempo, nomi, ...
Whitemane is an impressively good synergy piece in the midgame I've used it to kill one minion comps early on, but very rarely used it as an actual tech piece
In my experience, whitemane has been a life saver when you're low in the midgame and your next opponent is 6 beasts dealing 10s or 20s to other players
Hi! I have a proposition for a future video maybe. I saw that you made a bg video about comp tips. What about making a tier list of comps in batllegrounds (maybe 2 most popular for each tribe if not all). Tier lists are always fun!
For the first time in ages i got an insane high roll leapers game with a golden baron. Completely forgot whitemane existed and my opponent found two of them and deleted my leapers board. Made me very sad. Nice to be able to counter certain comps, but kind of feels bad to have it played against you and not be able to counter it yourself
Ball of Minions and Elementals is insane. I had the naomi (however it's spelled) and eventually a ball popped up with 37 at and defense. So for 2 gold you get to buff one of your minions by a very large chunk.
I know I'm not Ben but personally, I've been getting slapped ever since the new patch dropped and while I haven't really analyzed anything enough to know why and I'm definitely not a top player, the game is feeling super un-fun for me at the moment 😅
@@ItsBen321 Something I can personally recommend is to play on a separate account or region to play in lower Elo and just go for fun builds. Been having way more fun playing on NA recently and just trying to make some random trashy comps work instead of going for the standard good comps. Then again, i also haven’t played battlegrounds that long yet so not sure if that could/would work for others
You are underrating Vanessa to the point that you are being sus, one star!? The thing that even I missed with her is that sometimes she attacks/procs MORE than one time during a single battle, especially against mech/beast/demon tokens. She also synergizes well with Al'Akir. And being at 5 is such a sweetspot for Pirates now, the same way eles are good just to stay at 5 the whole game (for a higher chance to triple Nomi/important Eles). You now have more chances to pick up a 5star Pirate with triples on 4, if you are already pushing pirates. Pirates suffer from being kinda low tempo until you get Hoggar going. She is just a great addition for pirates for tempo, it's much more consistent now. I'm glad there is only one level 6 pirate now because it makes Hoggar on 5 more consistent to go infinite with more pirates in the 5 and under tier pool, plus Nosy Looter on 6 did nothing for pirates other than the tag, there is no need to go to 6 now, you get triples from being infinite if you need a tech card in tier 6. going to six just hurts pirates and is a waste of gold imo. I think you are missing the bigger picture of level 5 consistency, power level, tempo, and what Pirates want/need.
Ball of minions is definitely a 5, too much synergies with almost any comp(nomi, felbat, hoggar, brann, cali, etc), plus it's an all type which is never bad
if you don't like my content you don't need to watch it or leave a comment just saying. Clearly you enjoy engaging with my channel as you've left comments on multiple of my videos :) find a better way to spend your time instead of actively trying to put others down, it a poor defense mechanism.

It was a bug they patched out in the latest hotfix

Quests and hero powers go off before whitemane’s effect. If those effects put you at 7 minions she will only taunt one

@@alexman159 Yep you are absolutely correct. I just had an evil twin game and Whitemane went last. I still detroyed a frogger build though 🙂

can i just say i think the flavor on ball of minions is so good? the art and effect and everything are just so good
on faceless disciple- got it on a.f. kay, which could have been crazy but it turned my other card into that taunt buff minion which was sadge

the walking fort giving me biiiiiig Taz Dingo vibes. You know... that one 3/5 taunt troll guy from classic hearthstone
this guy with the Sen'jin Shieldmasta reference damn that is a deep cut, someone played a lot of arena back in the day
Patient Scout is amazing with Vol’jin, since it isn’t even a tempo loss if you swap it with a 3/6, etc…
I thought Vanessa was bad, but on early she can totally help. I was lucky to give her windfury and she buffed a lot, she even stayed to the end
Yeah i had a few easy wins with early Vanessa aswell.Late she is bad obv and not as Op as Hogger triple.
3 dragons tier 1 so that Ysera can’t triple that easy

Great video Ben. Will u be live on twitch again sometime soon?
I might go live on twitch tomorrow, but not with Hearthstone, a different very exciting challenge! I do plan on doing another youtube battlegrounds stream sometime this week
the new pirate is great. him with two bettys and the balls on board will buff your board fast. it is basically a early admiral, but stats are permanent. him with admiral is nuts.

Would hoggger at 6 be a fair change?
Got a patient scout turn 3 with reno. Made it golden immediately. so so good
What if you wait and golden it just before you sell it in case you find something else? I don't think it needs to be immediately
Or you get the quest with Spellcraft: Make a minion golden until end of turn. And turn it golden just the turn you sell it! So much value
@@AndiParkour yeah. That reminds me of when I had exactly 3 gold left and I needed 6 for mccaw and rebirth and there was also a gambler on the shop. Bought that one first, then the other 2, Baron wasn't golden that turn and I lost health to a lucky ghost but it was the right play.

Just realized I've never seen Vanessa once while playing the new patch, even when Pirates are in. Weird.

tier 1 dozy welp is pretty broken with Tamsin + Mechs/Cleave
Randomness is a way to achieve 50% winrate for all heroes.
Hey Ben, are you enjoying the new patch? Me and my roommates have collectively agreed that the new scammy meta has made things more challenging.
I haven't had too much fun with Battlegrounds in a while, but don't think it's just because of the patch though

The 5 star pirate is not that bad when you highroll it or make it golden.

Rolled the board ten times looking for amalgam today. Wish I had seen this earlier.
Exciting content
Patient Scout really fuels Theo comps, regularly 2 neutrals for 1 gold.
Am I the only one who has the pop up for battle bash, but doesn't see anything to click on?
Ball of minions is definitely a 5, too much synergies with almost any comp(nomi, felbat, hoggar, brann, cali, etc), plus it's an all type which is never bad
Ball has overperformed in my pirates and elemental comps, getting an extra 5/5 or more put onto a minion is a super nice bonus when cycling.
the pirate changeup seemed so pointless. I liked nosey looter a lot but vanessa just feels pointless
Shifter zerus high rolls have ruined this season…..going 6th with infinite pirates cause your opponent high rolled with zerus is trash.
